A GOGEBIC MUSCALONGE.

A prosperous manufacturer OF Newport,
KY, is Col. l.. NJ. Dayton. He has been
guest at the Gilsey House for several
days. He was reported to know some
thing of the iron fields in the Gogebic
range in Wisconsin. An inquiry IN that
direction drew out this reply: The one
thing l know about that region is that In
the Gogebic Lake the fishing is simply
magnificent. l have an axiom about
fishermen and fish stories that | shall
have to give you before | dare say any
thing about my experience on that de-
hghtful tody of water. My axiom is that
all fishermen are liars but not all liars
are fishermen. The principal sport on
Gogebic Lake is trolling for muscalonge
and bass. have caught muscalonge
that weighed 1S pounds, and the bass
range all the way up to and 6 pounds.
[ caught black bass that weighed b
pounds. In one afternoons sport which
extended over four hours, we caught At
muscalonge and SO many bass that we
did not count them. 1t was on the Go
gebic Lake that l had an experience with
muscalonge which | think was the
largest fish of its kind [ ever encounter
ed. OF course he got away, as all big fish
do. This fellow struck my fly when L
had about $50 feet Of line out. You may
know that he was big and powerful from
the fact that as he came up out OF the
water he lifted the entire $50 feet OF line
clear of the surface and exposed himself
to view down to the tip of his tail. If
the iron is as good as the fishing, the Go
gebic range stands at the top of the
heap."-N. Y. Tribune.

THERE is something to admire in the
rugged honesty of General Bragg which
keeps hlm from STOPPING to cater to any
sentiment no matter how widespread.
which his Judgment does not approve.
Bragg, In the popular estimation, is an
Unconditional, hard-headed fighter. The
fact is there are few men who took part
in the war as officers who have such az
abiding love for the soldiers who served
with them. The General is never de-
monstrative and never steps aside to
court favor. With his record as soldier.
his career as statesman, and the bril-
liant character of his mind, he could be
the idol of the soldier boys. But he does
nothing to win their support, while he is
willing to do everything which their
merits may command. He fights the
pension bill with as much vigor and per-
slstence as he does the southern claims.
Not because OF hostility to soldiers but
because he deems the bill an unjust one,
law which will rebound to the benefit
Of ''the rubbish of the army" Contrast
his course with that of Fairchild or Lo-
gan. Bragg's contempt OF the arts
which secure popularity makes him a
grand figure in an age when everything
bends to expediency, and the lust of pre-
ferment represses every impulse Of hon
esty. Bragg disdains to use lever which
would give him power and which no hand
could grasp more firmly than his, because
his honesty ssnass syprovs ths useatss.

BISMARCK has succeeded in carrying
the elections and he will have good ma
jority in the next reichstag. 1t looks as
if he would have carried the election with
out the Pope's assistance. The German
people have great admiration for the man
of blood and iron and submit to his wishes
without much protest. Evidently they
are not yet ready for republic as they
are too proud of the splendid empire
which inspires Europe with fear while
robbing the German of his liberty.
The contest has developed fearless
leaders of the people against despotism.
Windthorst, Richter and Virchow have
displayed the qualities of intrepid leaders.
The former is a most devoted Catholic.
1t must be CALLING to him to be not only
abandoned by the Pope, but betrayed.
Richter is a free-thinker and man of
commanding ability and Virchow is a
scholar. The elections have proved that
Bismarck is supreme. Everything bends
to his will even the Vatican can be used
for his purposes.

IS THIS SOP

A few years ago little book fell into
our hands, recounting the experience of a
certain prominent business man, from
which 1t appeared that, as with most
Americans. too close attention to business
had broken his health. The doctor said
he could not live. He then stated that
he used a certain article which effectually
cured him, and "out of gratitude fol his
own recovery he determined to devote
portion of his fortune to spreading its
merits before the world"
AS we read it we said This is evidently
a shrewd expression OF commercial
motive; it sounds well; it reads we'll; but
many people will not believe it,
In few years, however, that man got
famous the world over. He gave several
hundred thousand dollars to astronomical
research, and his name became house
hold word in nearly every home in the
United States.
Hundreds Of thousands of people to-
day, without reservation, say that to this
man alone they owe their lives.
Ii ten men are collected together the
chances are that If one man incidentally
refers to Warmers safe cure seven of them
will be able to tell, from their own ex-
perience or from the experience of their
friends, of marvellous results which that
remedy has wrought.
Nothing has ever been put on the
market, we are told the sale of which has
been so great and kept up so wonderfully
and this alone is evidence that merit is
at the bottom of its popularity.
In our files we find many an advertise
ment from this house. Some people have
believed, have used and have been cured;
others have disbelieved, have not used,
and died.
The manufacturers have stated, as the
result of their most careful Investigations,
that the condition of the kidneys is the
key to health, and that they know if the
kidneys are maintained In health by
Warmers safe cure, ninety-three per cent.
/ of diseases would disappear.
The uric acid, or waste of the system,
left i'll the blood, by what may be called
constipated kidneys, blocks up the sys-
tenn and carries disease to every organ.
This statement, made time and time
again, is so full of sense that it is now
accepted as a scientific truth by insurance
companies who reject millions of risks
every year If there is the least inactivity
of these organs.
The public is tired of the wrangles of
this school and of that school, and it is
quick to recognize anything that has such
conceded merit, and on this ground alone
| can we account for its extraordinary sales
and popularity.

BRANCH MEETING

The teachers meeting of February 19,
was called to order at 9:45 A. NJ. with an
attendance of sixteen teachers. All the
teachers in the vicinity, and some from
quite distance were present. All the
teachers who had subjects assigned We're
present, except Miss O'Connor, who was
to present school work to be done at
home" Miss McCarty read a paper on
Requisites of success as teacher" she
gave''a knowledge of the subjects taught"
as the first requisites. Mr.. Hewitt OBJ
jected, and would have morality the first,
and knOUledge as the second. Mr..
Meisnest suggested that both must go
together to form the true teacher. The
discussion did not lead to any conclusion.
In teaching the history of any religion,
as Quakerism or Catholicism, relating to
q. S. history, Mr.. Hewitt would go TO
the bottom, teaching their history from
their foundation. Most other teachers
objected. 1t was voted for the committee
to decide as to the holding of anther
meeting; the place to be Cato or Grimms

A SHEBoYGAN county assemblyman has
been experimenting with some of the
"saw dust" swindlers of New York and
escaped being bit because the express
agent was merciful. The swindler in
New York offers to send counterfeit
money or jewelry, said to be stolen, for a
certain sum OF money. The box sup
posed to contain the stuff comes G. 0. d.
but it is filled with saw-dust. The She
boygan legislator paid $500 for $1,000
worth of stolen iewelry" and got box
of saw-dust. The express agent returned
him his money. The fool should have
been allowed to stand the loss as he is as
big rascal as the man at the other end
of the line.

If, as Bismarck gave people to under
stand, his success in the recent elections
will be note of warning to France that
a war with Germany is unsafe, the season
of peace will be used to root out social
ism in Germany. The socialists are very
numerous in Germany and in the event
of war with France would give the
government but little assistance. Indeed,
would make its extremity the occasion of
a coup d etat whereby the socialists
would get control of things. Bismarck
knows how little reliance he can place
upon the socialists and if they are not
made to scamper from Germany like
frightened rats, it is because they will
make their peace with the Iron Chan
oellor by the most abject submission.

IT is strange. O. W. Felker, editor OF
The Oshkosh Times was a soldier. He
talks to soldiers very much as Bragg does
and he opposed the pension bill as Bragg
did. These men win respect for their
modesty in times Of peace. But for this
reason they do not seem to be IN the very
best standing in present clvo-mhtary
circles. A Kaukauna soldier has written
letter to Mr. Felker full of the coarsest
kind Of abuse because The Oshkosh
Times opposed the pension bill. The
, "Kaukauna soldier" whose name is Jack
son, says he has been a democrat but
since "this IL Day of Feb. has found me
true republican" because The Times did
not favor the pension bill. The writer
then informs Mr.. Felker that if the bill
became law it would mot amount to
you cent peace to you" while it would
be big thing for the state.
In conclusion the soldier from Kau-
kauna says: What are you kicking
about wait till you hear from all the
grand army post then you can blow but
if you keepe on in the way you have for
the last weeks you will make damd
ass of yourself" Mr. Felker will probably
hear from that part of the grand army
| which longs after the flesh pots as his
| correspondent does. But isn't it too bad
there cannot be little sitting so as to
| separate the chaff from the wheat, the
| worthy from the unworthy.

THERE is not much likelihood of a wars
breaking out between France and Ger
many, though a war of some kind In
Europe seems to be in the air. The
standing armies and reserves OF each OF
these countries reach the surprising fig
ures of two and one-quarter Million
The advantage which Germany has, hes
in the fact that all its movements are
directed by one man. No differences OF
opinion are allowed. 1t is strange the.
France does not see this. Under Napoleon
I, France dominated Europe because she
was obedient to the Will of one man. 1t
is not the French character to be obedi-
ent or patient and this will ever make
her weak in a contest with Germany.

GENERAL BRAGG says If the pension
bill passes over the Presidents veto, there
are 100000 negroes who can take adj
vantage OF its provisions though they
were never at the front. When lot of
negroes were captured they were sworn
in as soldiers as that was found to be the
easiest way to take care of them, but they
never fought and it was never intended
they should. They worked around the
barracks and in the hospitals. The
General thinks the bill cannot pass, but
he is evidently mistaken as the vote to-
day will demonstrate. There are many
good reasons why the bill should not
pass. But the convenience and peace of
the country demand its passage and these
should break down all arguments.

VERY readable article, and ono givin
great deal of inflammation ON the suhieC

A VERY readable article, and ono giving
a great deal of information on the subject
of which it treats, appeared in The
Sentinel of Friday, copied from The N.
Y. Mail and Express and presumably
written by German. 1t deals with the
German and French difficulties and ana
lyzes the causes which made France weak
and Germany powerful during the Franco
-Prussian war. The writer argues that
the conditions are somewhat reversed to-
day, and intimates that the certainty of
Germany's success in the event of a war
growing out of the present unfriendly
feeling, is by no means as assured as it
was in 1870 The German people are not
pleased with the empire as it has not
brought them the liberty which they were
denied by the small states. Prussia is
the empire and the smaller states are not
enthusiastic for Prussia.

A BILL has been introduced in the
Legislature compelling railroad companies
to issue passes to members of the legisla-
tpre, state officers and sheriffs. Why
should these be privileged classes?
Sheriffs receive milage and SO do men,
bers of the Legislature and state officers
get good large salaries With the exception
of state superintendent. He is compelled
to increase his salary by the liberal use
of railroad passes. His railroad passes
are worth mRe to him than the salary
fixed by the constitution.

IT would seem that if foreign commerce
is at all desirable, the United States would
find it profitable to trade with Mexico
which is favorably located and whose
products are of such a character that
close commercial relations would produce
but little competition, the bette noir Of
protectionists. The trade of Mexico is
given over to France, Germany and Eng
land and solely through our selfish policy
Of isolation. Mexico, it is said, is anxious
to purchase many things manufactured
in the United States, notably farm ma
chinery, but our tariff laws prohibit all
reciprocity. A few sugar growers in
Louisiana demand protection and to sat-
isfy them trade with Mexico is interdicted.
There are also few wool growers in
Ohio who demand protection and the i'm
portation of wool is made expensive for
their benefit. In this connection the in
formation furnished by our vice-consul
at Montevideo, Uruguay, is OF interest.
He states that Uruguay annually raises
about 100000 pounds Of wool. 1t is
of the very finest quality, but the United
States impose a duty of 10 cents pound
on it. AS a consequence it goes to France
and Germany, and these countries pur-
chase it SO cheaply that they can afford
to manufacture it into cloth and supply
the United States with superior wooden
goods, despite the tariff. This is what
comes to the people of the United States
because few sheep raisers insist that
foreign wool be kept out. The foreign
wool is kept out. The labor needed for
its manufacture into cloth is performed
outside The cloth,-a superior quality
because Of the superior quality of the
wool-comes to this country and is sold
here and the money taken out with which
to pay foreign labor and foreign manu-
facturers. 1t is because Hurd fought
this policy that the people turned in and
defeated him.

ONE OF the most important questions
discussed during the session of congress
just about to close is that of commercial
route controlled by the United States
through the most available portion of
Central America. There are two schemes;
the Nicaragua canal, one which requires
no experimenting and which certainly is
feasible, though expensive; and the Eads
ship railway, something entirely new and
relying largely on theory for its promise
of success. The ship railway is a scheme
for railway over which vessels with
their cargoes can be transported bodily.
They are hoisted up from one ocean, run
across on the railway and lowered into
the ocean on the other side. There is no
breaking OF bulk" This scheme has all
tie appearances of visionary one but it
is the pet of so skilled an engineer as
Captain Eads. The Eads scheme seems
to be the favorite one in congress.
But the purpose in starting out on this
subject was not to discuss the relative
merits of these routes, but to call atten-
ton to the fact that though this matter
is one of momentous import to the United
States, and its consideration requires the
exercise of the highest craftsmanship and
patriotism, the people give more attention
to partisan speech In congress or to the
removal of fourth class postmaster.
Should one of these routes be pushed
and controlled by the United States,
future generations will look upon the
legislation which gave this country con-
troll, as the most important of the century.
But the attention of the country is now
directed to the granting of pensions to
soldiers and their relatives and no heed
given to this weighty matter.
And, after all, it is best. The less the
people have to say about it the more
satisfactory the results. All this talk
about the people ruling is arrant humbug
The less they rule the better. Public !
clamor never yet centered on any desirable |
thing. The people are either the tools |
Of demagogues or an unreasoning mob, |
and the highest work of craftsmanship is |
to prevent the evils which are sure to /
come from the peoples rule" If they are /
not thwarted.

CARLISLE is being criticised by the
democrats for giving an important chair
manship to Sam Randall whereby the
latter has been able to prevent the dem
ocrats from enacting any legislation which
would strengthen them before the coun-
try. Carlisle has an exaggerated idea of
courtesy; but Randall uses the power
given him unsparingly and practically in
the interests of the opposition. He is of
the aggressive kind and when he has
club in his hand he proposes to use it.

IT is charged that Gov. Swineford of
Alaska has been filling his pockets after
a fashion not countenanced by strict
honesty. The Governor evidently thought
it was good time to lay up a little some
thing. Two appointees from Wisconsin,
both newspaper men seem to have gone
astray. The boys are SO hungry they
feed too fast.
